Senator Felder Tried to
Save The State Some Money
ATLANTA, Ga.—lt has been said
that talk is cheap. This, however,
does not apply to senators, one sena
tor in particular—Senator J. P.
Knight of the sixth, who, as the result
ot his speech in the upper house
Thursday, the state of Georgia is out
nearly one thousand dollars. The
senator consumed four hours in the
discussion of a mo%n to adjourn,
and as the legislature burns up $233
per hour, there you are.
Now there's another senator who
tried to stop this apparent disregard
Df time and money. He was Senator
’’elder. And while he failed in his
purpose, he is entitled to credit. It
cost the state something, of course,
to rhoke the filibuster, but dilatory
tactics oontlnued and nothing was
accomplished. President Flynt is said
to ho responsible for this state of
affairs, for he aligned himself with
tlie minority and enabled a filibuster
to continue after he had been over
ruled.
Here is how Senator Felder came
in:
As previously stated. Senator
Knight spoke on a motion to adjourn.

order that Knight’s motion to adjourn
was out of order, because he had
made the motion after the previous
question on the motion to table the
resolution had been called.
President Flynt overruled the
point.
Senator Felder appealed from the
decision of the chair.
The appeal was entertained and
Felder convinced a majority of thh
senate that he was right and the
president wrong.
The effect of. the reversal of the
chair was to sweep Knight off his
feet, and rejoicing was general.
Senator Felder, as is shown, cer
tainly did try to do something yes
terday in putting a stop to the fili
buster which Senator Knight has con
ducted for two days.
It cost a few hundred for Senator
Felder to lead the majority against
the president of the senate, but it
was a case where the minority had
full control of the .situation.
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
GAINS POPULARITY
j ——
Many Essentials are Found
in This Once Popular
Doctrine.
LONDON—Nothing is more Interest
ing than to watch the evolution of an ]
idea, and the thought that is rapidly
gaining ground in the Church is undouht
edly that, while much of the premise of
Christian Science is altogether false, a
great many of the statements are not
only in acord with the teaching of Chris
tianity, hut are essential truths which
have been overlooked through lack of
faith.
That the power of healing was given
must be unquestioned by ail who read
the Gospels, and to say that such a
power after a time was withheld other
than because of the unbelief of the fol
lowers of Christ seems to be equally ap
parent.
The forces of the mind are only now
being thoroughly understood. We have
In these days a growing group of com
plaints almost directly the outcome of
overstrained nerves.
That these must and ran he met by
mental treatment undoubted, but the
question is, Does the power stop there?
This is a matter which has been brave
ly faced by the assembled Hlshops in
the Lambeth Conference, who have
made a pronouncement which at any
rate opens the door to further discus
sion, and makes it evident that the most
thoughtful and enlightened minds in the
ecclesiastical world are of opinion that
we have to ask ourselves very seriously
how this matter stands.
In America the subject has been more
widely ventilated than in this country,
but the coining of Dr. MrCoomb has
caused great interest here. Mr. Moore
Hickson, who is a native of Australia,
has been for some time at work in Eng
land. with singular results.
He is a man of gifts, of strange mag
netic force anu the humility of a child.
He feels that he is merely an Instrument
used, and that he passes on that which
he receives from an august source.
This is a subject of which we have not
yet heard the last word, and unquestion
ably in the near future much remain to
be developed.

'FOBD INSPECTOR’S
EXCELLENT IRK
BULLETIN ISSUED BY THE DE
PARTMENT SHOWING THE
WORK DONE BY THE
INSPECTOR
ADULTERATED FOOD IN GA.
This State Has Been Used
as Dumping Ground for
Manufacturers of Impure
Goods.
ATLANTA. Ga.—The Department of
Agriculture has Just issued a bulletin
gotten up by Dr. R. E. Stallings, State,
Chemist, on Foods and Commercial Feed
ing Stuffs inspected and analyzed in the
State of Georgia up to June Ist. 1908,
showing the excellent work done by food
inspector, P. A. Methvin.
In his report to Commissioner Hudson,
Dr. Stallings says “The work in the lab
oratory during the last few' months has
shown conclusively that there was an
enormous amount of adulterated articles
on the market; It shows that our State
has been the vertible dumping ground
for the manufacturers of Impure goods.
Since this department has taken up th*-
matter the conditions of affairs have un
dergone a revolution, the good effects
produced by the law have demonstaten
its usefulness,” Continuing this report
says “The total amount expended by
consumers for the last ten months ag
gregate $2,102,715,00, these figures do
not take into account the large amount
of cotton seed meal that has been used
for feed purposes. Since the enforce
ment of the law relating to feed-stuff?
began, the quality of feed has constantly
improved. During this time many cat
loads, aggregating many hundred tons
of feed, have been found to be adulter
ated. They were seized by order of this
department and were shipped out of the
State.” This report concludes with the
statement “cotton seed meal, when a
good quality, is one of the best and
cheapest feeds on the market." From
this report it is seen that the time is
not far distant when Georgia farmers
will be able to get all bi-products neces
sary for feed use on their farms through
the products raised thereon; it will no i
longer be neceMsary to Import from the ]
West high priced low grade feeds If he j
will come to realize that the best as well j
